Community Housing Network: Mission

At Community Housing Network, we are passionate advocates, devoted to providing homes for people in need and access to resources to create sustainable communities.

We do this through proven strategies of homelessness prevention, housing assistance and development, community education and referral, advocacy, and additional services. We carry out our work in Southeast Michigan.

Community Housing Network: History

Community Housing Network opened its doors in 2001 with funding from Oakland County Community Mental Health Authority. At that time, the organization was charged with providing property management for housing for people with disabilities, creation of a Housing Resource Center, and development of additional affordable housing opportunities for people with disabilities.

Our flagship Housing Resource Center (HRC) now receives more than 20,000 calls per year - each call representing someone looking for help. HRC staff work hard to connect people to vital programs and services to prevent them from becoming homeless, or to help them with whatever their housing needs may be.   more

CHN makes the difference for program participant

Every once in a while a special donation shows up at Community Housing Network. "It's not ever much,” says donor Duane Ott. "But CHN has made all the difference for me living the kind of life I choose to live versus the life of abject poverty. I can't remember how I got along before CHN.”   more
